  1. Tips
  • Do not peel sweet potato to retain extra nutrients
  • You can find medjool dates in the fresh food section of your supermarket, if you can not source fresh dates, you can use dried however they may need to be soaked in warm water prior to use.
  • Brownie should be still soft and fudgy when removing from oven although look for a slightly hardened surface to know its cooked through.
  • Store brownie in an air-tight container
